Gaseous ion implantation induces displacement damage and gaseous atom uptake in the
target material and is widely adopted to simulate plasma–material interaction in fusion …

Helium irradiation blistering in tungsten is of intense interest for plasma-facing materials
under fusion-relevant conditions. Previous studies have revealed that the surface blistering …

Although tungsten is considered as one of the primary candidates for plasma-facing material
(PFM) in future fusion reactors, blistering induced by plasma irradiation adversely affects …

Tungsten exhibits a pronounced blistering behavior under severe hydrogen implantation to
approximately 50μm. The growth of a blister is controlled by the interplay between the gas …

Understanding the radiation damage of low-energy and high-fluence helium ions on
tungsten surface is of great interest and significance for developing advanced plasma-facing …

Due to a lack of direct experimental results, the detailed mechanisms that govern the
blistering behavior of tungsten (W) exposed to ITER-relevant condition in nuclear fusion …

Abstract Tantalum (5 mass-% Ta) doped tungsten and pure tungsten in comparison were
exposed to 60 keV helium ions implantation with a fluence of 1.04× 10 22 ion m− 2. It was …

In order to study the effect of carbon impurities in plasmas on tungsten first walls, a hydrogen–
carbon mixed ion beam was irradiated on tungsten. It was found that a very small amount of …

This work discusses the response of ultrafine-grained tungsten materials to high-flux, high-
fluence, low energy pure He irradiation. Ultrafine-grained tungsten samples were exposed …

We investigate helium flux effects on helium transport and surface evolution in plasma-
facing tungsten using molecular dynamics. The simulations span two orders of magnitude …
